Sacrificial Pressure GUIDE

Understand Sacrificial Pressure

Useful when…

  • Add the mod’s general melee-damage bonus.
  • Use its separate listed damage multiplier against Sentients.

Rank effects and compatibility

At rank 0, Sacrificial Pressure gives +10% melee damage and a ×1.03 damage multiplier against Sentients. At rank 5, the values are +60% and ×1.18; at rank 10, they are +110% and ×1.33. It is incompatible with Pressure Point, Primed Pressure Point, Amanata Pressure, and Flawed Pressure Point.

Slot and investment

This is a standard melee mod with Umbra polarity, base drain 6, and maximum rank 10. The rank 9-to-10 step costs 20,480 Endo and 989,184 Credits. The supplied rank effects list the rank 10 values as +110% melee damage and ×1.33 damage against Sentients; they do not provide rank 9 values.

Compare listed melee-damage values

Flawed Pressure Point is listed at +80% melee damage, Pressure Point at +120%, and Primed Pressure Point at +165%. Sacrificial Pressure is incompatible with all three, so their listed bonuses cannot be combined with it.

Limitations and tradeoffs

  • The rank 9-to-10 step has a listed cost of 20,480 Endo and 989,184 Credits.
  • The mod is incompatible with the listed Pressure Point variants.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Treating the Sentient multiplier as a general bonus against every enemy.
  • Planning to equip it with an incompatible Pressure Point variant.
  • Inferring rank 9 values from the rank 9-to-10 fusion cost.
